While you are free to leave the state, the children of the father may not be without a court order. See if you can work on some type of agreement with the child's father and if you can't you may need to petition the court for a modification as to custody, but in order to get a modification you will need to show that the circumstances you wish to change are inthe best interest of the child (not yours).

Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can call my office to schedule an appointment for a consultation or in the alternative, I can be reached for on-phone low-cost legal consultation at 1-800-275-5336 x0233699.
